‘You Just Put Words In My Mouth’: Pam Bondi Throws Down With Dem Rep Attempting To Attack Her Ethics

Attorney General Pam Bondi fired back at Democrat Pennsylvania Rep. Madeleine Dean’s repeated attempts on Monday to accuse her of ethics violations.

Dean tried to make Bondi reveal her internal conversations with President Donald Trump regarding the pardons of about 1,500 prisoners who were at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The attorney general repeatedly told Dean during a House Appropriations Committee hearing that she will never discuss private conversations she has with Trump as the congresswoman repeatedly asked her the same question.

“I am never going to talk about conversations, advice in any way. I’m never going to talk about discussions I have had or not had, if I can answer, with the president of the United States,” Bondi said, prompting Dean to ask if she gave him advice. “I am not going to discuss any conversations.”

“That’s a no,” Dean interrupted.

“You just put words in my mouth,” Bondi replied. “I am not going to discuss conversations I’ve had with the president of the United States. You asked me a question and you asked me to answer.”

Dean then requested that her time be reclaimed since Bondi supposedly did not answer her question. She then accused Bondi of “corruption” for previously being registered as a foreign lobbyist for the embassy of Qatar to advocate against human trafficking.

“Attorney general, have you ever been registered as an agent for foreign principles under the Foreign Agents Registration Act?” Dean asked.

“I assume you’re talking about when I represented the country of Qatar for a very short time, hold on, hold on, for anti-human trafficking for the World Cup. Anti-human trafficking for the World Cup,” Bondi said. “You can’t put words in my mouth. You want to talk about incompetence, you’re the one who said Joe Biden on PBS was competent! You had to retract those words. So don’t talk to me, don’t insult me publicly.”
